I'm still trying to get the bits together I need to make a UQ and TQ for my hammock. I going to use Primaloft One for the fill and I now know where to get it from http://www.extremtextil.de/ but I'm...

Hey Tank and welcome, like the idea of the car park, going to have to try that.

Excellent news chaps. Now just need time to get out and try it.

At the moment I have a DD frontline and use a continuous loop through the channel on the frontline, then I attach my whoopie slings using a soft shackle to the continuous loop. I have been thinking...

Heres a pic of me in my hammock painted by my 5 year old daughter. Not too sure about the fire under my hammock :p

Yeah it does strech a bit but once it has streched it seems to be ok. I still use the webbing that came with my Frontline. Did you use it doubled up? I do and find that its ok like that.

Hey Mike, so you got round to signing up on here. :p

If your worried about humidity I would steer clear of the DD Travel Hammock. Some people report it can get a bit humid in one of them in a British Spring. Its because the base of them is not...

Just thought I would post this idea I had which seems to work quite well.

I got a load of amsteel and was trying to use a darning needle to to bury the amsteel and was finding it hard going. So I...

Cheers on the replies guys.

I'm glad I now know why you taper. I could not find any where on here that said why you do taper, just that you should and I always like to know why I am doing...

I made some whoopie slings and continus loops out of dynemma last year and they are holding fine. I used the guides on here to make them but I did not taper the cord. I assumed (and still do) that...

6' here and I have a DD Frontline, love it. Sleep well in it every time. I have found it to be very well made. DD have great customer service on the off chance you get a dud one, very rare it...

Cheers for the link, just made my first 2 using the method in on that page. Was a bit hard as I only have a darning needle. Need to get a better tool to bury the line with.

1/You carry you hammock everywhere just in case theres somewhere to hang
2/When you tell your other half you had fun swinging in the woods last night they are glad you got a good nights sleep....

Took my wife and kids up to Brockwell Woods near Newcastle to go try out her new DD Frontline Hammock

Got up to the site just as the owner was going to feed the lambs, he asked if my girls would...

Great pictures there mate, had to right click and select view image to get them.

Love the lake district try to get up there at least once a year.

This is the view I have when I use my local park to practice new idea's for...

The webbings not bad, use them as tree huggers and try not to use to much length in them and then use the whoppie slings.
Got to wait to get some more amsteel to make my wife her whoopie slings.

Hello Redwall,

Another brit here too :)
Redwall? Thats the book series ?

Decided to be try and be organised this year and get my wife her birthday present on time. I managed to do this with a Frontline hammock from DD Hammocks :D Her birthday is December, so a bit early...

Cheers for getting tapatalk on here. You guys rock :D

Go on lay it all out end to end, it will be a laugh :p

I have a DD Frontline and am very pleased with it. Think DD have got over the problem with the webbing stretching. Early hammocks came with green straps which streched. Mine came with black ones,...

Just got my new camo tarp from DD Hammocks. Been itching to get out and use it. Had a 2 night camp planned this weekend but a good dose of man flu the week before put the kibosh on it but by the end...

I'm up for this.
Got a little wood near me where I'm going end of Feb. Cannot WAIT! :D

Cheers guys. yeah its 3 meters by 3 meters.

Very impressed with whoopie sling I have seen on...
